Raised in the tough streets of South Central L.A., Michel’le stormed the music scene with a voice – really two voices – like no other, as her child-like speaking voice marked a startling contrast to her strong and soulful musical delivery. As mentored by powerhouse rapper/producer, Dr. Dre from NWA, her debut album reached number five on the charts in 1989, thanks to hits like “No More Lies,” “Nicety,” and “Something In My Heart.” Michel’le had it made – or so it seemed. However, her mentorship and romantic attachments proved costly in deeply personal ways. After years of silence, Michel’le opens up to Unsung about life as an accomplished singer, and as a survivor of domestic violence.
